"The Taking Of Pelham 123"... Alamo Drafthouse Village... Auditorium 1... Wednesday June 17th 2009

The movie was up to the usual standards of 4K Digital at the Alamo Village. No visual artifacting except for the three abberations I pointed out a few weeks ago during Star Trek (all three are still there), or sound issues, beyond the overall acoustic performance. I am sure this Tony Scott-directed movie has lower bass extension than is evident at the Alamo Village, but nevertheless it's still a screen to be proud of.

I had the Alamo's Asian Chicken Salad, a Guinness, and their Molten Chocolate Cake A La Mode (total bill $20.50) All were quite yummy, and though the freezing, almost fizzy Guiness isn't as authentic as a smooth, mild-temperatured Irish pouring, it's still a pleasure to guide down the gullet.

I used my voucher from a previous visit. I had to sign my name and provide them with a phone number, I suppose this is to catch those creating their own supply of counterfeit vouchers!
